DAGGER Game Library

In the right sidebar, you can now find a link to information about the DAGGER game library. This new page contains information and links about all of the games owned by DAGGER.

A group of DAGGER members, including two of our officers, recently went to the BPA World Boardgaming Championships in Lancaster, PA. While there, they purchased Settlers of Catan, Cranium, Bohnanza, and Shadows Over Camelot; this means that DAGGER is now the proud owner of 73 board and card games!

You may have noticed that DAGGER has a new logo! And by that, I mean you may have noticed that DAGGER now has a logo.

Here is the design you can find on our Facebook group, and you can see the larger version at the top of the page.

Pow! Pow!

Thanks to everyone who came to Nerf Wars back at the beginning of the month! We shot Nerf darts at each other and then played some Fluxx after we were dead!

We've also received a great donation of several Nerf guns from DAGGER member Danny! Thanks, Danny!

Have a great summer, everyone. We hope to see you in August!

Nerf Wars!

So that part where I said we were done for the year and would see you in the fall? How about we have one more meeting before we actually say goodbye for the summer?

Join us Saturday, May 1st, at 8:30PM, location TBA, for Nerf Wars before final exams start up. There will be board games available for anyone who is shot during the games.

April 27th: Return of the New Games

For our final meeting of the semester, this week we played more of the new games in the DAGGER collection. After elections were finished, we played foxes and bears in Tally Ho!, built trains in Express, built civilizations in Roll Through the Ages, and fenced some more in En Garde. There were also nymphs in Bacchus, confusion in The Club, and foreign currency in Money.

That's it for DAGGER until August, but we hope to see you then! Good luck to everyone on finals and have a great summer!

New Games Night - April 20

Last night at DAGGER, we pulled out the new games, unwrapped boxes and cards, punched out pieces, read through unfamiliar rules, and celebrated the recent expansion of the DAGGER library.

We collected evidence in Looting London, mined in Incan Gold, and fenced in En Garde. We collected bugs for points in Swat, matched birds in Birds on a Wire, and built lines of matching color in Take it Easy*. We also played Roll Through the Ages, Oregon, 2 de Mayo, and Master's Gallery.

There may have been more that I missed. It was that eventful of a night, with a whole bunch of great new games.

*This song will now be stuck in my head forever.
